[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨BREAKING: Senator Josh Hawley says “innocent people don’t plead the Fifth” when describing Dr. Fauci’s testimony.

Here’s the video of Donald Trump pleading the Fifth 400 times during his civil fraud trial.

[Marc E. Elias @marceelias]

If you are the DOJ, it is unprecedented to lose 17 straight voting cases in 17 different courts without winning a single one. It's even more remarkable when 8 of them were decided by judges appointed by Trump.

How long will the networks ignore this?
How long will Trump?

Gavin Newsom: “Donald Trump’s gonna do everything to try to steal this election. He’s socializing all of this to normalize all of this. He doesn’t believe in fair and free elections. He wants the election that Putin has. He wants to pick and choose who votes. This is pathetic that anyone is defending the ramblings of this madman”

@avinor i Bergen har verst baggasje håndtering i Norge. En skam!

[Tomáš Zdechovský @TomasZdechovsky]

Dokud Rusko vraždí na Ukrajině, nesmí jeho sportovci na olympijské hry.

Souhlasíte?

[Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock @SenatorWarnock]

First, they sent the FBI to seize ballots in GA. Then, they tried to get data on election workers in Fulton County.

Now, they’re threatening to imprison election officials.

This is escalating quickly. Every single American should be alarmed.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court DISMISSES lawsuit to compel Connecticut to provide the DOJ its complete statewide voter registration database.

DOJ is now 0-16 in cases to gain access to state voter files. Elias Law Group remains undefeated. https://t.co/b7DauA0Kcb

[Maine @TheMaineWonk]

This is why Trump HATES @ossoff: He’s too good at this.

OSSOFF: Did the President pardon a man who worked with the Sinaloa Cartel to facilitate massive narco trafficking into the US?

CLAYTON: Word Salad… He was a convicted narco trafficker.

OSSOFF: Did the President of the United States pardon a convicted narco trafficker?

CLAYTON: Yes.

[Marc E. Elias @marceelias]

🚨BREAKING: Kansas court BLOCKS law that disqualifies mail ballots that arrive after election day. Court restores three-day grace period for mail ballot return.

A huge victory for Elias Law Group, our clients and the voters of Kansas! https://t.co/6ALL3l4sUX

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

What kind of AG would Todd Blanche be? Here’s a clue: he created Trump’s $1.8 billion political slush fund to allow Trump to pay off his pardoned street-fighting MAGA foot soldiers. He threw in a “family plan” total self-pardon for Trump, his sons and relatives and businesses against any and all criminal, civil and tax investigations and prosecutions. He should just continue to work as Trump’s lawyer.

[Stacey Abrams @staceyabrams]

Donald Trump just used a primetime address to relitigate an election he lost six years ago — and to demand new laws making it harder to vote.

Americans see through the lies. He tried this in Georgia first: a call to "find 11,780 votes," a raid on Fulton County, and now a war on the ballot itself.

That's not democracy. That's cowardice. America, we've beaten it before.

[Governor Newsom Press Office @GovPressOffice]

Trump is throwing out American democracy and installing competitive authoritarianism — just as his handlers Putin and Xi want.

Masked men at polling places. Crying election fraud before votes are even cast. And tonight, more fear and doubt will be cast on our democracy.

Do not bow to this mad king ransacking our taxpayer dollars for his own family’s profits

[Governor Newsom Press Office @GovPressOffice]

Tonight, the country watched an old man ramble about an election he lost.

Democracy IS under threat. But the danger isn’t just from abroad. It’s from within.

Don’t give in to cynicism. Don’t stay silent. And above all, don’t stop voting.

That’s exactly what Trump and MAGA want.

You are the antidote to Trump’s madness.

Accountability is coming — and the American people will deliver it.

[Jon Ossoff @ossoff]

Tonight I heard a failed and desperate president who as war spirals and prices rise is as always focused on his grievances, his shame, and above all his fear of the accountability that will come with defeat.

I also heard a president signaling his unmistakable intent to attack these elections and our voting rights, just as he tried to throw out our votes and seize the presidency in 2020.

Our answer will be overwhelming.

Across Georgia a wave of defiance is building to rebuke him so decisively that no president ever again dares such brazen corruption and abuse.

The power of the presidency is nothing compared to the power of the people.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

This is a 25th Amendment moment.

I just watched the ramblings of a mad king and what else can I say — the only thing missing was tin foil.

Donald Trump is trying to rig our elections and we have to stop him.

Show up and VOTE this November.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

Russia strikes Kharkiv every single day.

​I rarely write about it anymore. Not many people seem to care, and the news outlets never mention it. Posting about it feels like screaming into a void. If Russia can kill 30 people in a capital city full of journalists without any global outrage, who is going to care about a destroyed gas station and a single life lost in Kharkiv?

​Yet, they keep launching all kinds of drones and missiles at us. They strike Kharkiv several times a day, destroying our homes, injuring our people, and often killing them. I just wanted you to know.

​The photo below is from today. 8 people were injured in this strike.

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

Every American — regardless of political party — should be horrified at yet another blatant effort by President Trump to eradicate every safeguard of free and fair elections.

If Republicans remain silent in the face of his obvious attempts to rig the election, they are complicit in allowing our democracy to crumble.

[Tomáš Zdechovský @TomasZdechovsky]

Pustit Rusy znovu na olympiádu by byla velká chyba. Pokud MOV jejich start umožní, musí přijít bojkot ze všech stran.

Souhlasíte?

[Mike Nellis @MikeNellis]

So not only did an ICE agent shoot an unarmed man in the back of a van and lie about it, they’ve detained three eyewitnesses and are pressuring them to self-deport so they don’t testify. This is horrifying shit.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Russia has no place at the Olympics,
